Abstract: An anti-theft display stand for holding merchandise which is mounted on small cards. The display stand includes a number of tiered platforms which are rotatably mounted on a vertical shaft, and a number of tiered guard plates which are paired with the platforms so that a plate is superposed over each platform. The guard plates are non-rotatable relative to the shaft and platforms. The cards are mounted on the platforms so that their removal is restricted.
Abstract: A clasp construction for interconnecting the ends of a chain, bracelet, necklace, or the like, together. The clasp is comprised of two components which are spring-loaded, and pivotally connected together. By exerting a gripping force against the clasp, the components can be pivoted relative to each other, thus permitting the clasp to be attached to, or separated from, a chain link, ring, or the like.
